Ne-Yo Has Something To Tell You

So he took to his MySpace blog to air you haters out.
One rule of being a gentleman is to keep your cool and composure at all cost, but right about now I gotta loosen up this tie and take off this expensive suit jacket and talk to the people for a minute. The haters especially.Pardon my french, but what the fuck is wrong with y’all!?! Are you so desperate for an R&B bad guy that you gotta find a way to create one in me?? Okay, the comment about light skinned babies…….an obvious joke, maybe not a good joke, but clearly a joke.Y’all REALLY took that serious!?!I understand that a hater’s job is to hate, clearly. But it’s when people start feeding in to what a hater is saying that something must be addressed. The wholegay thing. For goodness sake it’s been 4 years!!!! Y’all still on that huh? The whole “boys” song, and the song “go over there”. See this is what happens when people steal. These songs were clearly written for women. Had you been patient, you would have heard them the way they were supposed to be heard, with the voice of the intended artist on em’. But noooo, someone gets a hold of these demos and suddenly everybody forgets that I write songs for women. Riiight. I tell People Magazine thatYoung Jeezy’s crib is right next to mine and that once I saw him in there from across the way. I then make a JOKE about him maybe not wanting to walk around naked in his crib with the shades up cause the buildings are THAT close to each other, and that AIN’T something I care to see. Suddenly, everybody thinks I said I saw Young Jeezy in his crib naked when, NEVER ONCE did I say anything like that. I mean come on people.Is this really what you’re gonna spend time on??Will you not be satisfied until I truly become this asshole you so desperately want me to look like??Here’s my stand on the whole thing:I’m NOT gay, I’m NOT prejudice to anyone, I DID NOT get stomped out by Jim Jones or anyone else, I’m NOT engaged, I’M NOT STUPID.And to anyone that INSISTS on thinking that any of these things are true……FUCK YOU.To the haters….find some new material please!!! It’s 2009, our president is black!!! Time for change.To everyone else……I love you to death, thanx for all your support.WE PLATINUM ROUND HERE!!!!!Much love, and see you at the grammy’s.Checkthe suit…..it’s gonna be TROUBLE!!!

New Lawsuit For Dwyane Wade

Remember when NBA All-Star Dwyane Wade closed his namesake restaurant chain before it even opened and filed a lawsuit against his partners for mis-management? Well D Wade's ex-partners have filed another suit against him, in addition to the suit they've already filed claiming Wade never promoted the restaurant. The partners are now claiming D Wade refused to show up at any of the openings because the partners would not re-negotiate their original contact. After signing the deal, D Wade decided he wanted 30% of the business instead of the 10% he agreed to and he also wanted them to hire his father at $50,000.00 a year and one of his childhood friends at $75,000.00 a year per restaurant [they'd planned to open 30 of them]. When the partners balked, Dwyane stopped cooperating. A source familiar with the case said: “They actually tried to have the partners sign a new contract that was unacceptable. Dwyane tried to have us pay his dad to do nothing.” And if they didn’t renegotiate? According to the lawsuit, Wade's lawyers told the partner's lawyer's: “You can either have a happy Dwyane, or an unhappy Dwyane!”
When contacted by a Miami newspaper, Wade's people said, “We would’ve helped with anything they wanted. I was going to be Dwyane’s eyes and ears in the restaurants. They were real jobs. Plus, they initiated everything and now they turn it around. They’re trying to make Dwyane look like the bad guy who’s shaking them down. That’s not the truth.”

Jeezy Needs To Close His Blinds

Über singer/ songwriter Ne-Yo, explaining in People magazine just how close he lives to Atlanta rapper Young Jeezy, said, "Just chillin' one day, I was like, 'Is that... Jeezy?"I hit him up: 'Yo, you probably shouldn't walk around naked - I can see you."

I Ain't Saying She's A Gold Digger

OK all you 'Real Housewives of Atlanta' fans, if you recall, the super snotty faux designer Sheree Whitfield was not at all happy with the divorce settlement she got from her husband, former NFL player Bob Whitfield. The settlement consisted of a lump sum of $775,000.00, which she received in 2007, shares of Bob’s retirement pension, half the marital property and $2,142.87 a month in child support. Sheree currently receives $113,422 a year from Bob, who was not that great of a player, according to Wikipedia. Anyway, throughout the Bravo reality series, Sheree, who bragged about never having to shop on a budget, went on and on about how she was out to wrangle a 7 figure settlement out of Bob. Well, this coming Monday ReRe is taking her plea all the way to the Georgia Supreme Court, and guess why she thinks she's entitled to over a million dollars after only 3 years [and 2 kids] of marriage [well technically Bob and Sheree were married for 7 years but they separated after 3]? Her low level education. Sheree's lawyer says because Sheree only has a high school diploma there is no way she can get a job making the kind of money she requires to maintain the style of living she's accustomed to.

Ms. Wallace Wants To Talk To Kim

The late great Biggie Smalls' mother Voletta Wallace told Essence magazine: "There were things about him [Biggie] that I never knew that I wanted to see for myself on film. I saw a side of my son that I heard of but I haven’t accepted. I’m angered by certain things, disappointed and shocked. So this film taught me tolerance and to be less critical. I would love to speak to Lil’ Kim, because I need to ask more about this love relationship because I really didn’t like the way he treated her and I’m praying that that’s not it. Only she can answer those questions. She’s a sweet girl and I didn’t think she deserved to be treated the way he treated her, if that’s the case."

Kat Slapper Speaks

The dude from Detroit who slapped Kat Williams spoke to Vibe Magazine and this is what he had to say about the night he put the smack down: “I was probably with like 16, 17 dudes, we were scattered out throughout the club. Basically we were just up in there having a good time.” Kat passed dude, who was wearing a cowboy hat and a pair of $5,000 alligator cowboy boots, as he headed to the stage. When Kat got on the mic and started to riff, things went south. “I wasn’t even paying attention,” dude said. “I was talking to someone else while he was doing it. And then he pointed at me. I walked over to a couple of friends of mine, and they told me, ‘He’s clowning you.’ So I walked over there and asked [Kat], ‘So what you say? I don’t play that joke shit.’ So he was like, ‘And what?’ And that's when dude laid hands on Kat. "He didn’t even admit what he said when I asked him. He was still on some comedy stuff after I slapped him, I swear. After I slapped him, he jumped back and he was still talking and it was some girls holding him back. It was actually some girls in the club grabbing bottles like they wanted to do something to me too, like trying to protect him. He stopped and actually grabbed a square and was trying to light his cigarette. It was on some comedy stuff to me. He was trying to get his square lit, he took like two puffs, and he tried to charge back at me. But at this time, the security was heading me towards the door.” The next day on Detroit’s radio station WJLB, Kat told radio host Dr. Darrius dude slapped him in an attempt to steal his jewelry, a fact dude denied. “We weren’t trying to get his jewelry. I wasn’t that drunk to not know what was going on. [Kat] told like 20 percent of the truth [on the radio]. I could understand if we were at a comedy club, or some shit like that, but we weren’t there for that. It was after-hours, niggas was drunk, feeling it, we wasn’t there for that. It wasn’t no comedy show we were at. He’s mad because my guy was looking more pimpish than him. I’d do it again if he say something like that. And if I meet him, and he don’t do nothing like that, he on some old friendly buddy-buddy shit, I’m buddy-buddy too. I don’t have no problem. But if he got a problem next time we see each other…”
